I'm confused. Is "Who Cannot" a person? Because based on the fact you used "declare" in the plural format, "Who Cannot" must be a person in order for the thread title to be proper English.

With the ambiguities associated w/ the thread title aside, no one is expecting scientific bases for any of the claims made in non-academic Internet fora. Thanks for reminding us, though...

youcannot is indeed a person, a well-read and connected one at that. he looks down upon the lofty and magnificent 535 WEA, filled with insider knowledge (and some garnered from a rag sheet) about the buyers of the full-floor apartments therein. He has discussion with journalists from "THE" paper about the idiocy of the commentators on SE, and opines that we will be weeded out like the brown shoots that we are.

alpine "grammer"?

actually, nyc212, simply reading the listing history for a building would provide accurate information, but that would be too much for our youcannot. obviously it should be icannot.

he's quite the bon vivant, our icannot. cc, this is indeed the pause that refreshes. almost as good as a w67th post. maybe he'll have something to add later.

Since it's apparently pedantic hour, I'll note that the Oxford English Dictionary disagrees with nyc212 on the standard plural form of 'forum' in English.

It's fairly clear that sense 1, a meeting or medium for an exchange of views, is the sense in question here.
